Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Soon Mo Jingshen got into his car. Being left behind alone, Ji Nuan looked at his cold back and realized that Mo Jingshen… was really angry.
Oh, yes, a man who had been abstinent for more than three years suddenly heard that she promised to pay him back with her body, only to find that she was still in her period, which was a terrible provocation that no man could tolerate.
But was it really intolerable to him? When she had a stomachache because of her period, he still kisses her in bed while rubbing her stomach for her.
He was mad at her?
He was so brazen and always harassed her these days. How could he be mad at her?!
Ji Nuan pondered for quite a while, considering whether to take his car or take a taxi back to the hotel. No matter he was mad or not, she was not going to coax him.
But then she thought of the painting. After all, she finally got that painting but didn’t spend a penny. He was really nice to her.
With this in mind, when Xiao Hu came to open the door for her, Ji Nuan got into the car lifting the hem of her dress. Seeing the man already sitting in the car, she thought for a while, raised her hand and patted his shoulder. “I didn’t mean to offend you. I think I should thank you for the painting…”
The man glanced at the hand on his shoulder, shook off her hand deadpan and closed his eyes.
Ji Nuan: “…???”
She had not finished yet, and she ought to thank him anyway, lest he would call her an ‘ingrate’ again, but he had no intention of accepting her thanks. Did he close his eyes to refuse to communicate with her?
She wanted to thank him but was turned down?
She withdrew her hand and stopped looking at him. Xiao Hu got into the car and began to drive, daring not to look at the back seat at all.
Ji Nuan was sitting in the car next to this man who had closed his eyes and wasn’t going to talk to her. Xiao Hu didn’t speak either and the car was very quiet. She simply bent over to take off the high-heels over ten centimeters high. She had been wearing high heels all night and now she wanted to relax her feet, but when she bent over, she felt an upset stomach and gave a small hiss.
The man next to him didn’t move, even Xiao Hu continued to drive quietly. Maybe Xiao Hu thought the atmosphere in the car was weirdly quiet, so he turned on the music in the car, and soothing light music sounded in the car.
Ji Nuan successfully took off her shoes, quietly kicked her little feet in the car, and then put her feet gently in a cleaner place in the middle.
She was thinking about how to make up with Mo Jingshen. After all, he was very nice to her today. From the dress to the diamond jewelry and to this famous painting, he bought all these for her. She shouldn’t keep treating him so coldly.
1But seeing the man closed his eyes with no intention of talking to her, she had no choice but to stare at him.
The man suddenly opened his eyes and happened to see her widened eyes. Ji Nuan had no time to look away and their eyes met.
The man looked at her expressionlessly and glanced at her bare white feet that were laid between them and covered by the long gauze skirt, partly hidden and partly visible.
He said coldly, “Put your shoes on.”
“I have been wearing high heels all night and now I want to relax my feet. I’ll put shoes on when I get out of the car.” Ji Nuan withdrew her gaze.
Glancing at her pair of feet that seemed to stretch in his direction and her toes unconsciously curled up under his gaze, Mo Jingshen felt some part of his body expanded more seriously.
He closed his eyes again and said with a frown. “You’re still on your period. How can you be barefoot? Aren’t you afraid of catching a cold?”
But it was not cold in the car.
But seeing Mo Jingshen unhappy, Ji Nuan didn’t want to piss him off. She thought for a while and still put the shoes on. The stylist chose the shoes for her when she was trying on the dress today. Although it was of a famous brand and looks beautiful, it could only be worn in formal banquets. It would be very tiring to wear this kind of shoes for walking. She wore it all night, and now her ankles were sore.
It was quiet again in the car. Ji Nuan took her phone out of her bag to read the latest news. There had been some notices popping up on the news software, which were all kinds of news about this grand banquet and charity auction held in Beijing, but most of them were normal press releases, without any stupid gossip.
She read the news for a while and then put the phone down. Then she saw that he still had his eyes closed, making it clear that he didn’t want to see her again tonight.
She looked back at the car behind them, which was the car of the auction staff. They followed them to send the painting to the hotel.
She owed him a great favor anyway. She thought and decided to coax him a bit. After all, he had just spent six hundred million yuan for her.
“That painting really meant a lot to me. When I was a child, my mother always carried me to my father’s study. Although Ji Hongwen is not my biological father, the deep-rooted feelings from my childhood to adulthood are still there. Finding the painting back helps me find a lot of things back that I owned when I was a child. I’m really happy to have it back,”
The man didn’t open his eyes. “So?”
“So I’m really grateful to you for buying this painting for me, if nothing else. I had been hesitant about whether I should buy this painting or not. After all, MN Group is now on the rise and had to carefully consider whether I should spend a few hundred million yuan for a painting. It is really a difficult question of whether I should choose sensibility or rationality. Thank you for helping me make the choice.”
Mo Jingshen frowned and sneered. “So you just said ‘thank you’ to me?”
As she expected, he was still angry that she teased him just now.
Ji Nuan played dumb and said, “Oh, CEO Mo, you’re so rich and powerful. How do you want me to thank you? I said I’d pay you back when I get back to Hai City, and I really don’t intend to owe you anything. What else do you expect me to do besides saying thank you to you?”
Mo Jingshen had opened his eyes and looked at her. The woman was smiling at him. Her cheeks were so white that they seemed to glow in the dark car. Her bright and watery eyes and her naughty expressions made her look exceptionally attractive.
Mo Jingshen felt some part of his body going almost out of control.
He was never a womanizer, but Ji Nuan was different to him.
And she had become even more attractive than three years ago.
A causal smile or frown of this woman was like an addictive poison to him now.
And now she was smiling at him so… seductively.
